Gelly Roll
In the 1980s, Sakura surprised the pen industry with the invention of the first gel-based ink creating the first and original gel pen. The iconic, nostalgic Gelly Roll line includes 20 colors (including 5 fluorescents) and 5 gray shades. The unique paint-like quality and performance of Moonlight is ideal for both white and dark papers.Gelly Roll Gold Shadow gives handwriting a touch of elegance and glamour. This incredible gel pen writes in two tones: gold metallic outlined by a contrasting ink color.
How it works: Gelly Roll Gold Shadow is comprised of dyestuff and metallic powder. Dyestuff is the colorful ink that outlines the writing. Metallic powder gives the ink its shiny, gold coloring. When you write with Gold Shadow, the dyestuff colorant spreads and permeates into the paper. The metallic powder is thick and cannot spread or soak into the paper so it is left on the surface. This ink produces an "outline effect" when the dyestuff colorant spreads beyond the edges of the metallic powder. This is most noticeable after 2-3 minutes on papers that are white, uncoated, and fibrous.
